I ate pineapple pieces at a wedding and now my aunt is scolding me that it is risky. I am 13 weeks and feeling fine but still worried. Did you avoid pineapple fully?
In our time elders said avoid pineapple, especially early on, just to be cautious beta. A little bit is usually fine but if your family worries, you can simply skip it for the first few months. No harm in being careful with quantity.
I used to panic about this too and avoided it completely in first trimester just to feel safe. Later my doc said a small portion is harmless. So if eating it stresses you, skip it, but you really dont need to fear a few slices.
The pineapple scare is mostly a myth. A normal serving as part of your fruits is fine. You'd have to eat huge amounts of the core for the enzyme to even matter, which nobody does. I had a few slices and was totally okay.
Moderate amounts of pineapple are considered safe in pregnancy, the worry is exaggerated. That said, if you have a sensitive pregnancy or any history, just run it by your gynac and follow what she says for your case.
Actually yaar everyone scared me about pineapple too. Truth is thoda khana is okay, problem only if you eat tons. I enjoyed a little in summer and nothing happened. Dont let the myths ruin your fruit.
